All I can find online is regs that say 2023-24 season and Nov 20 is the opener…but that’s a Wednesday….that’s probably last years opener.
 

I’m thinking it’s Monday 11/25…cuz it usually opens the Monday before thanksgiving…but there is no mention of it on WVDNR site

Just out of curiosity, what is the deer hunting like in West Virginia? Actually, the hunting overall? It's been one of the states that is on my possible move to states. I just haven't researched anything yet. Thanks, in advance

WV is Wild and Wonderful!!

My favorite place to hunt over the past 20+ years!!  Mind you, we hunt on a 600 acre farm with a group of about 5-6 awesome people!!

The deer population in Roane County which is on the western side is booming.  Never a shortage of seeing deer.  In the past 20 yrs we shoot a good slammer about every 4-5 yrs or so….but it’s usually a meat hunt for does and decent basket rack bucks.  Turkey population is good too!!  The terrain is probably another favorite reason…steep rugged hills and hollers along w gentle rolling pastures…great to stand hunt or still hunt  

I can’t paste videos for unknown reasons…but search this drone video to John Denver’s Country Roads song and you will see how wild and wonderful WV is!!

Yep. Saw this article….but no actual mention of gun Buck opener and navigation of DNR website reverts back to 2023-24 dates. I guess 2024-25 regs just were adopted and no one updated website yet 
 

it does have a reference to antlerless dates and Nov 25- Dec 8 is listed ….which is probably the 2 wk buck season when u can shoot does if u have a tag.
